Faith: Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence
Too bad ours is actually based on facts and evidence.

You do realize that by admitting that the Big Bang Theory is not concrete you are also admitting that your beliefs are actually not based on facts, at all.

And I never said that just because the Big Bang isn't a fucking Scientific Law that it proves the existence of god.

In fact I never said anything about god until you brought it up.

Thank you.

Good night.

You stupid mother fucker! A theory is in idea that is supported mostly by evidence and can be wrong (I am sure this is bastardization but whatever). Creationism isn't based on ANY sort of fact at all. Hell the reason why colleges don't use them because they are well erm...heavily Christian biased instead of it being scientificly proven.

P.S. I DON'T EVEN BELIEVE IN THE BIG BANG THEORY
*facepalm*

I didn't say anything about Creationism.

Ever.

But a theory isn't fact. It's a theory, and just that.

There is no actual proof to irrefutably support that the universe was a completely random occurrence and that no otherworldly hand was involved. Therefore, Atheism is based on faith like all religions because, although they would never admit it, atheism has very little to do with actual science outside of finding contradictions with other peoples' beliefs.

If you want to fucking debate science in theology maybe you should look up basics like "Theories" and "Scientific Laws" first.

Big Bang THEORY.

Thank you.

Good night.

Any of you Atheists ever noticed contradictions within your own belief system?

Specifically the fact that you believe faith is ridiculous and unfounded yet you have no actual evidence that shows the universe was a completely natural occurrence but you still believe it.

Which, you know, is the fucking definition of faith.

All religion is pointless because by accepting other peoples' belief systems you are automatically bunching yourself in with a group of idiots and assholes.

The best thing to do in life is just have your own personal beliefs and not share them with anyone else because no one really fucking cares and you are just going to piss people off.

Even if Lit&Art do come out and work similarly to the Flash and Audio portals it's still going to be overshadowed by the Flash the same way Audio is now.

You aren't going to get tons of exposure unless you are one of the maybe five bigs names in the Audio portal, and even if they did give each portal an equal amount of exposure you'd be splitting the audience four different ways and everyone is going to suffer.

It's going to work like the Audio portal and have maybe four popular submissions on the front, and if not we are all well and truly fucked because there are already enough fucking sites out there with millions of fucking members with only 10% of them getting a decent audience.

The nice thing about Newgrounds is that Flash, and to a degree Audio, are the main focus. Both of those take a least a little bit of dedication to get into and as such there are fewer submissions and each author can get more attention for their work.

That isn't to say that Art & Lit aren't easy, but they are by far easier to get into. Fuck, I can open up MS Paint or Word right now and pump some "art" out in ten minutes tops.

Even as a writer I fear what the Art&Lit portals are going to do to Newgrounds because up to this point it has been one of the best sites out there for publishing and garnering an audience for your flash work. There are already numerous amounts of sites that cater exclusively to the Art, Lit, and to an extent Audio creators and by shifting the focus away from Flash you are turning Newgrounds into just another site where only twenty people out of millions are going to get noticed.

I'm not saying it couldn't work, but it probably won't.

Dominion over hell.

I could get my soul back, and I'd have a nice little place to retire to once I die.

It really is a good investment.

Basically anyone who likes a good RPG Will appreciate a good book.

Game writing and book writing are too very different mediums even within the realm of language.

That's a bit too big of a subject to go on about in length here, but let's just say that when the character descriptions, scenery, and action are completely removed from the equation the final product is a lot different.

You make a very good point right here...
There are some books I just don't understand WHY people love soooo much. For me, that one book is the Great Gatsby.

I read it once in high school, and the the second time in college.
And I NEVER liked that book-- and it seems to me that people read it because it's one of those "intellectual" books.

Last year I read, "How Late it Was, How Late" and it's also falls in that category.
I just don't understand why everyone is raving over that book. It was one of those books that had a lot of intellectual insight-- but no entertainment what so ever.

And I remember thinking about the people who are talking about this book as the best book in their life, "Jesus... are they all pretending, or what?"

Although-- I did pick up "Trainspotting" because they are similar, supposedly, in style... and I do love that movie.

The writing in Gatsby is just god awful if you ask me.

Movie is pretty good though since it strips away all the useless bull shit and just tells you the fucking story it was trying to in the first place.

Let's put it this way.

I have a Necronomicon right next to me.
